    I just bought a 2020 taco TRD pro. It’s my first taco and I’m trying to figure out what the clip/ mount on the inside of the center console lid is for. Thanks.

    As stated, it was designed for a pen, but it can hold a tire pressure gauge. It can be whatever you want if it fits.

    Welcome to the forum from Eastern North Carolina. :thumbsup:

    That clip/mount is one of life's greatest mysteries. It does come in handy for various purposes though. :)

    Not a very good hiding spot since the first thing they open is the console. Next is the glove box. Then they flip down the visors.
